In her words...

"Two years ago I started having problems with my left arm and shoulder. I tried quite a few different types of treatments and nothing seemed to help. In fact, it progressively grew worse and I was in constant deep pain, with very restricted movement. I felt depressed and tired, and thought, and was told, by a medical practitioner that perhaps this was how old age was going to be for me.

It was wonderful to become pain free and hopeful again. I couldn’t believe I was able to to have a beautiful morning kayaking on the lake, come back and work in the garden, play with my grandsons, bath and put them to bed, without a twinge of pain." Thank you Greg for giving me my life back. "

Sincerely, Kathryn Vezerian

What makes Greg unique?

Teaching you to fish.

“When I herniated two discs in my low back, I wanted to learn what was really going on, so I could figure out how to fix it, but after 8 years of pain, I was left disappointed.” We grow up with a cultural model and mindset that someone else is the expert of us. They have all this knowledge and if I have problem they will be able to fix me. “For years that’s what I thought, until I realized, I needed to and wanted to take more control. Control of my pain, of my how my body works and of how I can improve as I age.” Unfortunately most of the systems we grow up with are oriented around treatment and dependency. Treating someone who is injured is critical but leaving that person in a mindset and position where they need to keep coming back leaves them in a position where they are powerless and dependent on someone else. Greg turns this picture around. He helps you get back in the driver seat of your recovery and your resilience.
